How to fix the 'Can't load'-error when a perl script is executing 'use DBD::mysql;' - mysql

For years, I'm running a perl script on my Synology NAS. This script writes to a MariaDB database. I never had any errors. Until the migration to DSM7. This is what happened ...
I never had any problem when using MariaDB5
I migrated my database from MariaDB5 to MariaDB10. I changed the database name and the credentials to make sure my perl script used the MariaDB10 database. Everything worked fine!
I upgraded my Synology NAS to DSM7, following the provided procedure, including the requirement to remove the MariaDB5 package.
Afterwards, I noticed I following error:
Can't load '/usr/local/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/auto/DBD/mysql/mysql.so' for module DBD::mysql: libmariadb.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory at /usr/local/lib/perl5/core_perl/DynaLoader.pm line 193.
at ./mysql1_MDB10.pl line 2.
Compilation failed in require at ./mysql1_MDB10.pl line 2.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at ./mysql1_MDB10.pl line 2.
To make it easy to debug, I created a test script:
#!/usr/bin/perl
use DBD::mysql;
$solDBIDB = 'DBI:mysql:database=SOLAR2_10;host=127.0.0.1;port=3307';
$DBUser = 'mydbuser';
$DBPass = 'mydbpass';
$dbh = DBI->connect($solDBIDB, $DBUser, $DBPass) || die "Could not connect to database: $DBI::errstr";
$query = "SELECT * FROM SOLAR2_10.SUM_DATA_ITEMS";
$query_handle = $dbh->prepare($query);
# EXECUTE THE QUERY
$query_handle->execute();
I'm using a Synology NAS DS415P with DSM DSM 7.1-42661 Update 2 (latest updates)
Perl is installed as a package (via the Synology Package center)
perl -v provides the following version information: This is perl 5, version 28, subversion 3 (v5.28.3) built for i686-linux
The version of MariaDB10 is 10.3.32-1040
Update after comment #ikegami
I'm able to find the mysql.so file:
-r-xr-xr-x 1 root root 131923 Apr 21 2021 /usr/local/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/auto/DBD/mysql/mysql.so
I'm able to find the various libmariadb.so files:
ls -l in /volume1/#appstore/MariaDB10/usr/local/mariadb10/lib
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 15 Nov 23 2021 libmariadb.so -> libmariadb.so.3

Additional info:
cpan -l | egrep -i "mysql"

To me, everything looks properly installed ...
What am I missing?

airflow command not found when installing in Ubuntu via WSL - how to add it to path?

I have Ubuntu 20.04 and python 3.10.6 on WSL.
I have been trying to install airflow, and am getting 'airflow: command not found' when I'm trying to do 'airflow initdb' or 'airflow info'.
I have done
export AIRFLOW_HOME=~/airflow
and when I run
myname#LAPTOP-28BMMQV7:/root$ ls -l ~/.local/bin
I can see airflow in the list of files.
drwxrwxr-x 2 myname myname 4096 Nov 20 14:17 __pycache__
-rwxrwxr-x 1 myname myname 3472 Nov 20 14:17 activate-global-python-argcomplete
-rwxrwxr-x 1 myname myname 215 Nov 20 14:17 airflow
-rwxrwxr-x 1 myname myname 213 Nov 20 14:17 alembic
when I run this command to see where my python is, I can see this
myname#LAPTOP-28BMMQV7:/root$ ls -l /usr/bin/python*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 Aug 18 11:39 /usr/bin/python3 -> python3.10
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 17 Aug 18 11:39 /usr/bin/python3-config -> python3.10-config
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 5912936 Nov 2 18:53 /usr/bin/python3.10
I also warnings similar to this:
WARNING: The script pygmentize is installed in '/home/myname/.local/bin' which is not on PATH.
So I need to find a way to add this directory to PATH.
I have found the following advice from the airflow documentation,
If the airflow command is not getting recognized (can happen on Windows when using WSL), then ensure that ~/.local/bin is in your PATH environment variable, and add it in if necessary:
PATH=$PATH:~/.local/bin
am not quite sure how to do it?
I also have a MySQL workbench/server 8.0.31 installed and want to connect it to airflow instead of SQLite. can anybody refer me to a good guide on how to install it correctly?
I have run 'pip install 'apache-airflow[mysql]'.
You were so close! I think your local python (and your terminal whenever you tried airflow db init ) was not able to see the airflow you installed on its path.
There is this video series I go to, whenever I need to install Airflow for a fellow coworker.
This video shows how to install Airflow locally. Also, in the second video it shows how to write a DAG.
And more importantly, on the third video it shows how to connect to a different database just like you wanted.

SuSE Linux 15 SP2 update to SP3 && symbol XCRYPT_2.0 in libcrypt.so.1.1.0

Background: We produce a big Library Management System, the server parts written in C, compiled on Linux SLES 15 and deployed to ~100 customers. The version in question was compiled on SLES 15 SP2 a year ago, and our Internal IT Department updated meanwhile the Dev and QA hosts to SP3.
It turned out, that the libcrypt.so moved with this update from SP2 to SP3 to a new location, from /lib64 to /usr/lib64 and contains a new symbol:
strings /usr/lib64/libcrypt.so.1.1.0 | grep XCRYPT_2.0
XCRYPT_2.0
# rpm -q -f /usr/lib64/libcrypt.so.1
libcrypt1-4.4.15-150300.4.2.41.x86_64
# zypper info libcrypt1
Information for package libcrypt1:
----------------------------------
Repository : SLE-Module-Basesystem15-SP3-Updates
Name : libcrypt1
Version : 4.4.15-150300.4.2.41
Arch : x86_64
If you now compile a server application on SP3 and ship this to customers (as a fix for an urgent bug) who is still using SP2, these application are missing this symbol and do not start anymore:
/opt/lib/sisis/avserver/batch/bin/prg/BASTVL: /lib64/libcrypt.so.1: version `XCRYPT_2.0' not found (required by /opt/lib/sisis/avserver/batch/bin/prg/BASTVL)
# strings /lib64/libcrypt.so.1 | grep XCR
# strings /usr/lib64/libcrypt.so.1 | grep XCR
strings: '/usr/lib64/libcrypt.so.1': No such file
# rpm -q -f /lib64/libcrypt.so.1
glibc-2.26-13.48.1.x86_64
# rpm -q -f /usr/lib64/libcrypt.so.1
error: file /usr/lib64/libcrypt.so.1: No such file or directory
i.e. our internal update from SP2 to SP3, make it impossible to deliver fixes to customers running SP2, or they need update as well to SP3 before installing fixes, at least if libcrypt.so is involved.
Any comments or hints for a workaround?
At the end I compiled from source with
git clone https://github.com/besser82/libxcrypt.git
cd libxcrypt
./autogen.sh
./configure --prefix /usr/local/sisis-pap/libxcrypt
make
sudo make install
ls -l /usr/local/sisis-pap/libxcrypt/lib64

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 11 26. Jul 14:09 libxcrypt.so -> libcrypt.so
and pointed our application via LD_LIBRARY_PATH to use this version of libcrypt.so.1.

Compiling MySQL C API client does not link libmysqlclient.so.20

I'm writing some loadable modules for Zabbix, as such, compiling shared objects. I've written one which uses the MySQL C API to read some data from tables, it's fairly standard, and includes:
#include <my_global.h>
#include <mysql.h>
My gcc command looks like so (expanded mysql_config for clarity):
gcc -fPIC -shared -o zbx_mysql.so zbx_mysql.c -I/usr/lib64/mysql `mysql_config --cflags` -I/opt/zabbix/3.2/include -L/usr/lib64/mysql -lmysqlclient -lpthread -lm -lrt -ldl

The .so compiles and runs fine on the dev box, but copying it to a box without mysql-devel installed yields the following error:
cannot load module "zbx_mysql.so": libmysqlclient.so.20: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
I can only assume this means that the libmysqlclient.so.20.so isn't being bundled into my .so. I'm pretty much a novice here, so if anyone can advise it'd be greatly appreciated.
Shared libraries aren't "bundled", that's why they're shared. The machine you're trying to run on obviously misses the library. Libraries typically aren't in the "-dev" or "-devel" packages.
On your typical *nix system, you can have multiple versions of the same shared library installed, but normally only one development package. If you have the dev package for mysql-client 20 installed, the compiled code will link against that version. If you want your compiled code to link against mysql-client 18, install the older version of the development package.
If you need to be independent of the libraries installed on your target system, one possibility would be to link a static library instead.

Perl can not connect to MySQL (with DBD::mysql) on RHEL 6.7

I have Perl installed on Linux RHEL:
perl -v
This is perl 5, version 12, subversion 2 (v5.12.2) built for x86_64-linux-thread-multi
When I run command to see Perl modules installed:
find `perl -e 'print "#INC"'` -name '*.pm' -print

Working with memcache and mysql using memcache_functions_mysql UDFs

I have installed the following packages --
libevent-2.0.21
memcached-1.4.17
libmemcached-0.34
memcached_functions_mysql_1.1
All of the above have been installed successfully.
The output of the ldconfig -v command (the part where it shows that libmemcached libraries have been included) is as follows:
$ldconfig -v
/usr/local/libmemcached/lib:
libmemcached.so.3 -> libmemcached.so.3.0.0
libmemcachedprotocol.so.0 -> libmemcachedprotocol.so.0.0.0
libmemcachedutil.so.0 -> libmemcachedutil.so.0.0.0
But when I try to load UDF's into mysql using the install_functions.sql that is shipped with memcache_functions it throws the following error:
ERROR 1126 (HY000) at line 38: Can't open shared library 'libmemcached_functions_mysql.so' (errno: 0 libmemcached.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory)

Installing memcached on Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS (64 bit)
Python - 2.6.8
MySQL – 5.5.28
Zope – 2.12.19
1. Install memcached
apt-get install memcached
2. Install libmemcached -0 .34 (Version is very important. May or may not work with other versions).
Download it from https://launchpad.net/libmemcached/
tar xvf libmemcached-0.34.tar.gz
sudo ./configure --prefix=/usr/lib/libmemcached --with-memcached=/usr/bin/memcached
sudo make
sudo make install.
3. Install memcached_functions_mysql (Version 1.1 used at the time of the installation. (To create UDF’s that are invoked by triggers to manipulate the cache).
Downloading from https://launchpad.net/memcached-udfs
sudo ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/memcached_mysql --libdir=/usr/lib/mysql/plugin --with-mysql=/usr/bin/mysql_config --with-libmemcached=/usr/lib/libmemcached
sudo make
sudo make install
Navigate to the “sql” folder inside the memcached_mysql_functions directory.
mysql –u <username> -p < install_functions.sql
4. For Zope users
Install python-memcached-1.53
Download it from https://pypi.python.org/pypi/python-memcached/
Navigate to the extracted python-memcached directory.
/home/zope/zope/bin/python setup.py install
5. Edit the script containing which imports the modules.
allow_module('memcache')
from memcache import Client
allow_class(Client)
allow_module('memcache.Client.get')
allow_module('memcache.Client.set')
This is done so that memcache can be imported and used in your Restricted Python scripts.
If an external method is used to handle the above case, then the file does need to be updated with the above content.
